In short: 2nd year I've run this and again I totally loved it - cracking eventIn full: This is what I said last year: "Easy to see why it gets such consistently good reviews and there is little that can be added. Great race, great atmosphere, great organisation and a fantastic course. A real must do event."

There is really not much else to say. Nice touch to see 100s of free photo's on fabebook within hours of the event finishing.

In short: Brilliant! In full: What a fab race!! Really loved it! Nice flat section along the canal to get some fast miles in, followed by a beast of a hill at 6 - brilliant woodland section which was great fun, few tricky bits & I fell into a giant mud out, then final 2.5 miles along the flat to get a fast finish. Fantastic! Great atmostphere, superbly organised, small loo queues and a nice medal. Only gripe is could have done with a banana or something at the end, not just water. Will be back next year for sure! Date of review: November 15, 2014

In short: Worth the trip from BrightonIn full: PB achieved despite,one gruesome hill. Varied landscapes and surfaces but traffic free and just one big buzz. PB achieved and loved this oneDate of review: November 22, 2013

In short: Tow path a bit dull but forest worth the wait for sure!In full: Start was a bit vague and crowded but thinned out after a mile or so. Forest brilliant, made the run! Not a lot at the end just cups of water and a generic medal but who cares - will be running it again next year!Date of review: November 21, 2013
